You should be able to reformat it on your mac. I've done that with thumb drives for sure.

Guys,I had a very disappointing experience today. I bought a 128GB SSD drive, only to learn that a Mac could not write to it. It was bad enough that I couldn't find an SSD drive with FireWire ports, but to find a drive that could only be written to buy a Windows computer? This was absolutely unacceptable. Does anyone know of an SSD drive with FireWire ports that can be used by a Mac?Sent from my iPhone PLEASE READ THIS FOOTER AT LEAST ONCE!
